Really cool of the company to not alert us about two people being shot right outside the building this morning. Street blocked off, doors caution taped off, lobby crawling with police and not a peep from anyone at US Bank. We’re in the trenches trying to hit RTO goals.

Anyone know when or if there will be another round?

That’s what it’s starting to look like. Seems a little self-defeating to me, but what do I know, I’m just a measly peon, right?

My manager found out I've been job hunting and that I took some time to go to a job interview (side note, I was an id--t - do not tell your coworkers anything, they'll use it to their advantage in a second). How sc--wed am I? If the interview went well I wouldn't have cared, but it didn't, so as of now, I have no backup.

Friday isn't usually a layoff day, so I'm thinking no, but if anybody knows for sure, please share.

Did I miss something about our deposits being different? None of my insurance was taken out, and my gross pay is less.

I am just worried, Is Cisco Tracking on what websites, I am visiting or what am I looking at on Google Chrome ? since news came come out Meta Tracking its employees.

We were told every day is a drop in location at Bedminster. So why do people have personal stuff (including plaques) at "open" desks? Name plates also....

How concerned would you be about RIF of your role, if your team received a request from your AVP for individual mid-year accomplishments to be sent to them in a doc, 2-3 weeks before the official Mid-Year Accomplishments submission portal is open?
To me, it signals more of a 'why should we keep you' than an official performance appraisal, but maybe I'm paranoid.

I am one of the so called lucky ones who did not get terminated but put in the redeployment pool and STILL have not heard as they have till June 30. Anyone else hear anything yet?

It's really quiet in my org, no notifications, nothing. Is it possibly done already?

That’s not a light from an opening, it’s a train

I've never been laid off, I have no idea how these things work and I have a bad feeling about today.

Getting out since their stock options aren't worth sh-t, I guess? I'm sure they will be replaced by external hires with no industry experience who live nowhere near a Medtronic facility!
You'd think the board would wake up to what a problem Geoff is. The stock is in the 70s!

He also referred to BP's plans to lay off 'thousands of people', which has not previously been reported.

Another round of Allstate Asks where Zulfi tells us that they want to know what we think, but then they complain (and target you) if we don't give them the answers that they want.

Any area we know for sure is safe?

I've heard every rumor under the sun, and nothing credible yet.

Up to double the previous number from the last round.

Hopefully all the illegal aliens will be shipped back so we can get on with stabilizing a western company.

or does it feel like policies and procedures change on a daily basis?

There was a time when I genuinely believed this company valued its people. That feeling is long gone. Now we are just waiting for the next layoff announcement and bracing ourselves to train the people who will eventually replace us. I won't even mind all that much when my time comes.

We all know this is far from over, so when will it continue?

I'm starting to go crazy trying to keep all the rumors sorted and figuring out what could be true and what's definitely not. It's exhausting.

I have been at Open Text for a while, and I still can't tell if leadership has any kind of long term strategy or if we are all just responding to whatever crisis popped up most recently. My previous employer had plenty of problems, but at least they had a roadmap. Here, it feels like we are always reacting to something and never actually moving forward.

I've heard some people had to wait for a few months and I'm having trouble believing that.

Do we think the project will be completed on schedule, or is it heading toward another FNV4 situation?

Meaning, has anybody heard anything about layoffs lately?

You gotta be freaking kidding me.

After 6+ months of torture, we gotta endure 3 more months of this bullsh-t????

Fidelity seriously needs to prioritize how it's affecting mental health of associates.

FIS is on its way to bankruptcy.
Norcross ran company by M&A and hiding the financials.
After WorldPay disaster, FIS tried to fool Wall St. by acquiring Global Payments.
But deal was leaked and did not go thru.
This company is built on Financial networking nothing else.
The product offering are outdated and have very bad reputation in market.
If you own stock then do yourself a favor by selling it now.

and $$$ has to come from somewhere. things are bad right now.

Yahoo Finance: "Boston Scientific (BSX) and Abbott (ABT) are appearing on recent near-low screens." - OK, we get it. It's bad. Not sure about layoffs tho...

Are remote folks forced to be on camera for full length of shift???
Is camera recording AFTER shift is over?
Is the company phone actively streaming everything?
Anyone who can help answer this?

How much more do you think the company will shut down with GTP coming online?

That's it that's my post. Somehow we lost this. I think all of us have a hunch why.

Not to add fuel to the fire on here - but while most people worry about if they will have a job, some higher-ups were listed on this page.

Business as usual for them. Guessing they didn't use AI for the transactions to delight the executives?

Noticed several different leaders (mostly Directors) had their title in Outlook/Teams changed to “CW Optum Business Leader-Requisition.”

Does anyone know what this means and if it has anything to do with impending layoffs?
